Official Panthers at Eagles Gameday Thread


Zod

Recommended Posts

Wanted to add a big day for Gettis as well to Zod's list.

 

Also, wanted to ask, has Rivera said how long the starters will play tonight?  I figure the whole first quarter, but I hadn't heard him address it anywhere this week.

 

Last year I believe they played into the second quarter as well. Third game they played the entire first half.

Leave Vick alone, destroy Foles (why there is competiton here, I dunno).

 

Really liked watching Barner last game. Give him the bulk of the carries, and no fumbles.

 

I don't know if Smitty is going to be playing, but I would rather have him coach up the WR's on the sideline. The more time Cam can spend with the other WR's the better.

 

More Josh Norman! I hope he has another great game. I want to believe that he can be a solid corner for this team, and consistency seems to be the thing holding him back.

 

Playcalling, coaching, time management, all that jazz. There can't be anymore little mistakes that occur. That is what preseason is for though, to get all the kinks and small things sorted. Regardless, Rivera and team did well last game, and I want to see a continuation of that.

I want a win. 

 

all our players are fueled by the sense of victory. we need to win all preseason games to build the momentum for season opener.

 

i know cam was rusty for the first game but i want to see him have a better game today. I want AE and gettis to catch more. 

 

i also want josh to int another one.

    • That's my biggest concern with making him the 2C.  You split up the Aho Jarvis bromance that accounted for a lot of points.  If Jarvis excels as a C, it could help the team even more though.
    • The Saints being that high is the one that killed me. Chris Olave might not know his name at this point, Shaheed is coming off injury as well, so 31 year old Brandin Cooks might be your best WR...coming off a 260 yard season over 10 games. Kamara is Kamara, but didn't have 1,000 yards last year and is about to turn 30.  Toss in the fact that Taysom Hill may be the best QB on the team and I truly don't understand Barnwell's thoughts beside seeing the names "Olave" and "Kamara" and going yep, that sounds better than "Chuba" and "Thielen". 
    • Now now now, I wouldn't say there is no logic, but there's just not a lot of in-depth thought put into Barnwell's  "analysis." Now to be fair to him (and other national writers), pre-season team rankings are basically clickbait. And...Barnwell, himself, said that "there's a lot of projection here." He basically admits that he doesn't know how the hell things are going to turn out with our receiver group. He also said that "I find myself" more intrigued by Coker than Legette; that does not mean that he said that fans should be, or that Coker will even be better than Legette (regardless of ESPN's per-route-run stat). So, yeah, Barnwell said some things, but even he has to basically admit that he doesn't know how bad or good that our playmakers will be in 2025.  Overall, what Barnwell is basically thinking is that the Panthers have gotten worse at the offensive skill positions, and baked into that is that others have gotten better. That's the argument in July (meaning, please don't give this any more weight than it's due). I would personally be surprised (not shocked) if we end up worse than the Titans, Pats and Giants at least. Once you throw in the Bills, Giants, Jets, Steelers, and even the Chargers, I personally think there are several teams' skill groups that may end up ranked lower than ours by the end of 2025.  @kungfoodudeis one of my dudes, but like others he is over the tipping point. He's had enough. Seeing is believing. I will say this though: Barnwell's piece is less about logic than just good ol' opinion. And to be honest, he might as well be a Huddler throwing out sh¡t in the summer based upon nothing but good feels or bad feels.  Our offense as a whole (just like any other team's) is going to depend upon the play of the O-line and especially the QB. How you can even rank the skill positions without expressly baking those two things in the cake is beyond me. I would dare say that that's not even logical.
